Global Catastrophe: I Became the World Tree-Chapter 293 - 205: Handling the Aftermath, Seeking Benefits_1

Chapter 293: Chapter 205: Handling the Aftermath, Seeking Benefits_1

With the Lava Giant’s declaration, the others pondered for a moment before many nodded in acknowledgment.

After initiating the world-ending plan, at least ninety-nine percent of the creatures in the Land of Revival could be wiped out.

Of course, the more powerful beings, such as the Unusual Tree mentioned by Qiongqi, would likely survive, but that no longer mattered.

For with the annihilation of ninety-nine percent of the creatures, the fortunes of the remaining ones would also be reduced by the same amount.

By then, they would no longer be favored by the will of the world, and their strength would no longer soar at an incredible rate.

Seeing that everyone present was in agreement,

Chiyou finally couldn’t hold back and spoke up, "But if we initiate the world-ending plan, not to mention the cost to ourselves, the disturbance of the world’s origin might give those beings previously blocked by the Power of the World a chance to enter."

"Therefore, I feel there is no need to take things to this extent."

"According to my understanding, the human situation is not very good right now; we could first propose cooperation, using their powerful weapons to deal with other potential threats, such as the Unusual Tree."

If possible, Chiyou still wanted to protect the humans in his region.

After all, his tribe was defeated by the Yan Emperor and Yellow Emperor, and naturally absorbed by them.

But precisely because of this, the humans of this land also carried the bloodline of his tribe.

Of course, his opposition was just one reason and, moreover, the least important one.

Which among these strong beings at this level hadn’t emerged from a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood? Interests were the most important thing.

For him, the biggest threat was not the last batch of beings from the Land of Revival, but rather the group of beings before him.

Now, the reason they could discuss matters amicably was solely because their strength had not yet recovered to its peak, and they were temporarily unable to emerge.

Otherwise, with a group gathered here, they would’ve long been at each other’s throats.

So when he was bombarded by human weapons, he was indeed furious at first, but after calming down, Chiyou quickly realized the important role these weapons could play at this stage.

Hence, he conceived the idea of whether he could subdue the humans to do his bidding.

For this, he even sent subordinates to gather information from the outside world.

After learning that humans were facing a great crisis with the resurgence of Spiritual Energy, Chiyou knew this was indeed his opportunity.

But he didn’t act immediately and planned to wait until the fourth wave of the Spiritual Energy Resurgence when humans were in even greater peril before he proposed cooperation.

Even after receiving the explosive news from Qiongqi, he still hadn’t changed his mind.

Although weapons capable of releasing the power of a Peak of the Eighth Order were terrifying, he believed he could avoid them with prior knowledge and preparation.

And as for that Unusual Tree, indeed it posed a threat, but it would have to wait until it grew.

In the early stages with Spiritual Energy, it was indeed possible for these creatures to make sudden progress.

But to advance further after reaching the Seventh Order, they would need to comprehend the Rule Power, which required a lengthy process, not something that could be achieved overnight.

Thus, after considering all circumstances, he naturally had to make the choice that was most beneficial to himself.

Stop the world-ending plan, subdue the humans, and then use them to eliminate other competitors.

Hearing Chiyou’s words, indeed many people showed a hint of hesitation on their faces.

The Unusual Tree, once it grew, would indeed pose no little threat to them.

But these were things that might happen far into the future, and whether the tree could grow safely was another issue.

By contrast, the turmoil caused by the world-ending plan to the world’s origin, allowing past competitors to enter, was the real trouble.

Back in the day, each of them had paid a heavy price to seize a Different Space and make advance preparations.

If, to eliminate these still weak beings, they allowed former rivals a chance to enter, it would be a loss not worth the cost.

Especially the Six-winged Angel and Ice Woman, who quickly changed their stance.

"I think there’s sense in Chiyou’s words. Letting old enemies find an opportunity to enter is the real trouble. The world-ending plan can be postponed," Adams, the Six-winged Angel, immediately declared.

"I think so too. Although the last batch of beings from the Land of Revival has enormous potential, potential does not equate to combat power. We should be cautious with the world-ending plan," Luoya, the Ice Woman, also spoke up.

With these two speaking out, more people became hesitant.

"Don’t listen to their nonsense,"

Qiongqi spoke up loudly, "It’s just the disturbance of the world’s origin, not a collapse, how could those outsiders possibly get in?"

"Even if they really could come in, they’d be suppressed to the Fifth Order. By then, just send a batch of your subordinates out and you could trample them."

At this point, it looked at Chiyou, the Six-winged Angel, and Ice Woman with a hint of a cold smile, "Don’t think I don’t know what you’re up to, trying to subdue the humans and then use them against us?"

Qiongqi looked toward the Crowman, Tentacle Monster, Lava Giant, Naga, and Giant Dragon as a reminder.

"Their image is much better than ours, and compared to us, they can more easily gain the trust of humans. If you make the same choice, we’ll be dragged into an unfair competition. Don’t be misled," it cautioned.
